Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is looking at the safety of applying dilute bleach compresses to patients receiving radiation therapy and the impact of these dilute bleach compresses on the frequency and severity of skin changes that occur during radiation therapy.

The names of the study interventions involved in this study are:

* Di-Dak-Sol: dilute bleach compresses
* White petrolatum ointment

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a planned open-label prospective clinical trial to determine the safety of applying dilute bleach compresses to pediatric patients being treated for rhabdomyosarcoma and other soft tissue and bone sarcomas with radiation therapy (RT).

This study is interested in finding out whether dilute bleach compresses are safe to apply and evaluating their impact on the frequency and severity of skin changes that occur in children who are receiving radiation therapy for cancer treatment.

This information may help treat other patients receiving radiation therapy for cancer treatment in the future.

The research study procedures include screening for eligibility and study treatment including weekly evaluations and follow up visits

Participants will receive study treatment throughout their radiation therapy and for one week after. They will be followed for one month after the completion of radiation.

It is expected that about 12 people will take part in this research study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Di-Dak-Sol + White Petrolatum

Participants will receive Di-Dak-Sol (dilute bleach compresses) prior to receiving radiation. This will continue throughout their radiation therapy and for one week after.

Participants will also be asked to apply white petrolatum ointment 2x daily throughout treatment: once after radiation and once in the evening.

Participants will be provided with a log and asked to document information (dates/times of application) about the study treatment .
